Miles Davis and Gil Evans - Sketches of Spain

Beautiful hypnosis on a disk.

Flamenco and traditional Spanish music woven together (no crease, no seam) with Miles' exploratory, open-minded approach to jazz.

Don't know what else to say, except maybe that the music manages to be unique and still sound like a natural art. Doesn't sound like a forced merger of styles at all.

Feels exotic and takes you somewhere else.
